Woodblock Wednesday

It's another Woodblock Wednesday with Amy Tsuruta.

 

 

Unfortunately, I needed a sympathy card, so I chose one of my oldest and most-used woodblock stamps from Hero Arts - Difficult Time from 2003 (wow 20 years).  I paired it with with Hero Arts Garden Silhouette, both stamped on one of my inked Gel Press Prints in Versafine Black Ink.

 

 

I framed the blooms in a tiny bit of black cardstock & attached it to a confetti cardstock base. 

 

 

I'm also linking-up at Stay Crafty with a Blog Named Hero Dance of the Flower Challenge.

 

 

 

 

With my 20 year old woodblock, I'm linking-up at Retro Rubber Challenge Anything Goes.

 

 

I'm also joining We Love Stamping In the Garden Challenge.

 

 

And my blooms are inspired by the Gladiolas at the Double D challenge, which remind me of my dear dear Grandma and her memory.

Stephanie, I'm so sorry that you needed to make a sympathy card. Those are tough. Yours is gorgeous and what a timeless image by Hero Arts.
